1. Hey, male celebrities are talking about gay sex a lot this week! Let's review: Steven Tyler, who is straight, says he once slept with another man. Crazy old turd Ted Nugent,
also straight, says he is "repulsed" by gay sex but wouldn't mind if his son was gay. Michael Stipe, who is
gay, did not sleep with Kurt Cobain and, lastly, Scott Weiland recently
recalled being raped when he was 12 by an older boy. (Ed note: That, of course, is a little different than the other mentions we've included here and we don't think sexual assault is something to take lightly.) As Michael Mustosays in the
Village Voicethis week: "When you ask (a celebrity) for hot copy, they
demur. But as soon as a publisher dangles the dinero, they suddenly
remember that grandma raped them." [Via NME, Contact Music and Hufftingon Post]

2. Drake is working on tracks with fellow Toronto artists The Weeknd. Check out this cool video for The Weeknd's song "What You Need." We're not sure if it's an "official" clip or fan-made. What do you think?

4. Princess Beatrice's Phillip Treacy "pretzel" hat -- last seen during the Royal
